It looks as though AT&T is slowly
starting to come around with Android-based smartphones. Earlier this
week, we told you about the budget-friendly
HTC Aria that is coming to AT&T with a price tag of $129 with
a two-year contract.

”Add up Captivate’s amazing screen,
huge amounts of onboard storage, a super-fast processor, all fueled
by the nation’s fastest 3G network and a nationwide Wi-Fi
network and you get a smartphone we know our customers will crave,”
said Jeff Bradley, AT&T Mobility Senior VP of Devices.

“The Captivate represents a new breed
of smartphone that will truly change and enrich the way consumers
interact with their device on an everyday basis.”

AT&T won't give any firm
availability or pricing information on the Captivate other than to
say that it will be released within the "coming months at AT&T
retail locations."

quote: The trouble is DROID phone makers are competing against each other

This is a VERY GOOD thing. HTC, for example, competes against other Android sellers by making a superior user experience. Many of the sellers ship their phones with apps they've created to enhance their customers' purchase.

Also, you seem to be confusing DROID and ANDROID. Those aren't the same.
